Can someone give me the solution to this problem please

An airplane flies from London (51:5N, 0:5W) to Tokyo (35:6N, 139:9E)
along the shortest possible path. What is the latitude of the northernmost
point that the airplane passes along the way? (Assume that the Earth is an
exact sphere. Give your answer in degrees, correct to the nearest integer.)

What formula(s) or algorithm(s) did they give you for this sort of exercise? How far have you gotten in applying that information?

Please be complete. Thank you! ;)
 
i cannot upload the algorithms i have been given...but i can email them to you
and i am unsure how to approach answering this type of question
